Recent price spikes in the egg market reflected recurring shortages, well in excess of the normal fluctuations when eggs climb every winter. The accumulated inflation during the previous Biden administration (the COVID surge in money supply) suggests that shell eggs, like so many other food commodities, were disrupted. Year-to-year comparisons show poultry and eggs to have been more seriously affected than many others. Why did inflation in the price of eggs outstrip that of other food … [Read more...]
Fossil fuels and fertilizers: a pairing that feeds the world
Amid Earth Day’s impassioned calls to save the planet for future generations, a disquieting irony emerges: Efforts to eradicate fossil fuels – a linchpin of modern agro-industrial systems – risk severing the very supply chains that make global food security possible. From famine to abundance: green revolutionContemporary food production sustains a global populace of approximately 8 billion – and increasing – with a large percentage of individuals in wealthier countries consuming … [Read more...]
Does the Air Force Own the Weather in 2025? Origins of the Chemtrail Theory
2025 isn’t just the current year, or a Heritage Foundation project of conservative principles for political action for the new Republican President. In the 1990s it was also the result of an Air Force directive to “examine the concepts, capabilities, and technologies the United States will require to remain the dominant air and space force in the future“.As a partial response to that directive, several students at the Air War College in 1996 produced a document, largely theoretical in … [Read more...]
Much Harm and No Good from EPA Greenhouse Rule: Kill It
Empowered to impose sweeping restrictions on GHG emissions from all manner of human activity, the EPA has been free to impose unreasonable demands on electric generation, transportation, manufacturing and agriculture – just to name more prominent targets. Under the Obama and Biden administrations, with CO2 emissions being the focus, fossil fuels in general and coal in particular were hammered by this regulatory cudgel.In the last decade, regulations have contributed to the closing of more than … [Read more...]
Carbon Capture and Storage Is a Bad Climate Policy
The climate “hoax,” as President Donald Trump calls it, and the “green new scam,” also in Trump’s words, have spawned a plethora of bad ideas and policies.In the transglobal elites’ attempts to direct the world’s economy by controlling average people, they have pushed the idiotic and dangerous vision of the nations of the world going net zero. The elites’ words and actions suggest they think of people beneath their station in life, those in lower income strata or not part of the educated … [Read more...]
Climate-obsessed anesthesiologists numb to reality
Scientists at the CO2 Coalition say a fuss over the greenhouse-warming effect of anesthetic gases is much ado about something so close to nothing as be undetectable -- tiny fractions of degrees in temperature. In fact, we would add, compared to the stakes at risk in many surgical procedures, fretting over climate change in an operating room is frivolous at best.Anybody being “put under” for surgery is likely to wonder about the competency and focus of the anesthesiologist. Questions about … [Read more...]
The Economic Folly of a Carbon Tax
The following is a guest article by Vance Ginn.The push for a carbon tax has regained popularity as the fiscal storm in 2025 and climate change debates intensify. Advocates claim it’s a solution to pay for spending excesses while reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. But a carbon tax is a misguided, costly policy that must be rejected.A carbon tax functions more like an income tax than a consumption tax, capturing all forms of work, including capital goods production and building … [Read more...]
Small Group of House Members Introduce Pro-Tax, Anti-Energy Bill
The following is a guest article by Daren Bakst.The PROVE IT Act (S. 1863) is a pro-tax, anti-energy bill that, if passed, would lead to a carbon tax on imports and a domestic carbon tax.Last month, a coalition of over 40 leading conservative and freedom-loving organizations made it clear to the House: the conservative community opposes the PROVE IT Act. The letter was sent in anticipation of a House version of the bill being introduced.That day has arrived. Today, Rep. … [Read more...]
Climate Change Is Normal and Natural, and Can’t Be Controlled
The following is a guest article by Frits Byron Soepyan.NASA claimed that “Earth is warming at an unprecedented rate” and “human activity is the principal cause.” Others proposed spending trillions of dollars to control the climate. But are we humans responsible for climate change? And what can we do about it?“The climate of planet Earth has never stopped changing since the Earth’s genesis, sometimes relatively rapidly, sometimes very slowly, but always surely,” says Patrick … [Read more...]
Spencer vs. Schmidt: My Response to RealClimate.org Criticisms
EN: Dr. Roy Spencer serves thoughtfully on the Cornwall Alliance Board. What follows is a response to Gavin Schmidt’s blog post at RealClimate.org entitled Spencer’s Shenanigans in which he takes issue with my claims in Global Warming: Observations vs. Climate Models. As I read through his criticism, he seems to be trying too hard to refute my claims while using weak (and even non-existent) evidence.To summarize my claims regarding the science of global warming:In Gavin’s post, he makes the … [Read more...]
